Nudge Global Impact Challenge 2020 for Young Professional: (Deadline 1 July 2020)

Applications call for Nudge Global Impact Challenge 2020 for Young Professional.

The Challenge and COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

The Nudge Global Impact Challenge team wants to confirm that the Challenge will continue as scheduled starting 17 August. In view of the current circumstances, the four-day learning experience in the Netherlands (initially planned two months after the start of the program, 19 – 22 October) will be reshaped into an online program from October 2020 – April 2021.

The components of the learning experience will instead be spread over a seven-month period (October 2020 – April 2021). Participants will take part in activities such as individualized coaching sessions, learning modules with top sustainability and leadership experts, and connecting with peers in networking meetups. On 21 and 22 June 2021, a ‘Grand Finale’ closure event will take place in the Netherlands including the Nudge Global Impact Awards night in the Peace Palace in The Hague.

Theme 2020: Prosperity for all

Young leaders building a better world for people and our planet. When aiming for prosperity for all, we work towards a world in which there is no poverty. A world where inequalities are reduced. Where education, healthcare and basic human rights, such as clean water and sanitation, are accessible for everyone. However, this must be done within the planetary boundaries. The ‘all’ have to include future generations and all species that are dependent on, and crucial for our planet’s ecosystem.
